It is very likely that your case will not go to trial and will most likely settle out of court.
- Reasons for high chance of settlement
- Insurance companies prefer to settle outside the court to avoid unpredictable verdicts
- Plaintiffs want fast compensation. If they were to go to trial, they would be waiting months, even years.
- When one side has significantly more evidence than the other, settlement is the best option.
- Reasons for the low likelihood of a trial
- Liability is disputed: a jury may need to decide who is at fault
- The insurance company does not offer a fair settlement
- Serious injuries or damages took place
- There are disputes that need a court’s discretion
